Madrid will once again be the stage for American football with the arrival of the NFL at the Santiago Bernabéu. Next Sunday, November 9, the Atlanta Falcons and Cincinnati Bengals will play Week 9 of the competition in an event that will also feature several stars off the field. Colombian singer Manuel Turizo will headline the halftime musical show, which is one of the most anticipated moments of the game.

The artist will bring his urban music repertoire to the stadium in Madrid, where he will perform some of his best-known songs: ‘La Bachata’, ‘Una Lady Como Tú’ and ‘El Merengue’ are part of a career that has earned him international recognition. With this appearance, the NFL’s policy of bringing Latin music stars to its international games is completed, such as Bizarrap and Daddy Yankee at the 2025 matchup.

This is Manuel Turizo, a career marked by international success since ‘Una lady como tú’

Manuel Turizo was born on April 12, 2000, in Montería, Colombia. He is one of the leading names in Latin American urban music. His style blends reggaeton with Latin pop and tropical sounds; a mix that has allowed him to connect with audiences in different countries.

‘A lady like you’ was one of the first big hits of his career. Also ‘La Bachata,’ ‘El Merengue’ (with Marshmello), ‘Vagabundo’ (Sebastián Yatra and Beéle), ‘Copa Vacía’ with Shakira.

In 2026, the Colombian artist released his fifth studio album, ‘Apambichao’, and now has a new international date with his performance in Madrid. It is proving to be a success, generating great anticipation for the show that will be seen at the Bernabéu.

The musical program will not be limited to halftime. Pablo Sainz-Villegas will sing the Spanish national anthem before kickoff and Taylor Momsen will sing the United States national anthem. Thus, the three confirmed performances will accompany a day when sports and music will come together at the Bernabéu.
